The reason this is relevant is that it's much more humid here than at home, humid enough that I can leave my guitar out of its case. (Our home is Tucson where it's way too dry to leave the instrument unhumidified out of the case.)
The other reason it's relevant is that, because this is a rental, there's lots of room to leave guitar, music, etc. out.
What I've found is that this really helps the practice. I find that I can wander back and forth between guitar and other activities all day long.
I'm thinking this means we have to find a way to humidify the house in Tucson?
Or I should just leave my everyday guitar out of the case all the time?
